Can’t Force Myself

Do you ever think of me? Or do you just pretend “we” never existed? Have you made up a lie to yourself about how you never loved me any way? You left me wondering what I did wrong; wondering how I can fix something that doesn’t exist any more.  I’m lost in sadness! J.W.

 

Why do I keep on loving you
when it’s clear that you don’t feel
the same way for me?
The problem is that as much
as I can’t force you to love me,
I can’t force myself
to stop loving you.

My Heart, My Body, My Soul

No words can express the pain you caused. After you crushed my heart I started shutting people out. I began to hide behind a wall so no one can see how deep my grief was and to keep my tears hidden. I gave you my heart, my body, my soul, my all. You violated me. K.N.

O’ eyes do not weep
Cease the deluge of pain
And heart do not beat
Sad remembrance of him
Mind do not tarry
Lest fear should befall
Upon vows that you carry
And love you recall

The Torn Apart Remains

For three nights in a row I have dreamed about you. You either angrily told me to go to Hell or took something of mine saying I deserved to lose it for what I did. The only thing stronger than my love for you is the guilt for doing what tore us apart.  It constantly haunts me. J.B.

You do not know me.
Not like the others do.
Hate and loathing know me.
They know me through and true.
I am not what I appear to be,
the light that shines is but a glow,
of the torn apart remains,
of the real me you cannot know.
There is no greater condemnation
than that which is your own.
Which forces you, unwillingly,
To blame yourself alone.
From “Self-Hatred” by C. F. Tinney

My Noon, My Midnight…

Why love comes, stays a while and diminishes is as mysterious as why it rains and more difficult to predict. When sensing the coming of a storm there is never certainty if a feeling is accurate. I sensed you were falling out of love with me and sadly, I was correct. T.J.

He was my North, my South,
my East and West,
My working week
and Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight,
my talk, my song;
I thought that love
would last forever:
I was wrong.
English-American poet, Wystan Hugh

All I Know As Trust Has Fled

LOVE:”L” is for “Leaving” (can’t be with you anymore).”O” is for “Other” (your ‘other’ woman).”V” is for “Vapor” (what remains of my feelings for you).”E” is for “Emiction”(look it up dummy & you’ll know what I hope life does all over you). Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye. W.T.

Something beautiful has broken,
Something’s gone which can’t return.
Heart that’s broken, hurts that burn.
Something’s missing now, and sadly,
All I know as trust has fled…
Infidelity by Jaulsy

What Have We Done?!?!

Saying goodbye to you is the most difficult thing I’ve ever done. It took both of us to damage our love beyond repair. You’ve been in my life for so long it feels like a  big piece of me is gone; one I can’t live without. I miss you so much. What have we done?! J.R.

I sit here in this place
So far from where I used to be.
Wondering, what happened?
How did this happen to me?
Remembering the days
Of times gone by.
I promised I wouldn’t do this
I said I wouldn’t cry.
I used to be so strong
Nothing could get in my way.
Now I am lost and forlorn
How did I get this way?
I Miss You.

His False Affection

One day you’ll feel the pain I felt when I learned what everyone else already knew: you were cheating all while we were together. You’re corrupt, immoral, dishonorable, devious and deceitful! It’s all going to come back to you one day when what you did happens to you. S.N.

A devoted lover but a two-faced brute
Dedicated to one but committed to all;
Romantic tongue is his charming facade
Deceit is wrapped in his captivating arms.
He built a fancy and splendid world for us.
Promised me comfort and love till death.
He shared his hopes, thoughts and dreams.
He revealed his fears, sorrows and pain.
He gave me a glimpse of his thrilling life
And made me feel we are united and one.
I entrusted my heart, I relied on his love.
Oh, how enticing are his broken promises.
How captivating are his infeasible vows.
How enchanting are his lullaby of lies.
I was deceived by his cheating heart.
I was fooled by his false affection.
Now I am trapped in the dungeon of pain.
From “Faithful Two-timer” by Hana Kamid

Hard to Move On

How many times have we broken up and gotten back together in the last four years? Nine times!  Just because two people love each other does not mean they are compatible enough to make a life together. In spite of the pain the thought brings, it’s time to admit that. D.H.

There once was a time if I just closed my eyes,
I could see us together as one.
But after these years of growing apart,
I can see that dream is done.
You were the one who knew me inside and out,
And always knew just what to say.
Any problems I had would disappear,
When you said it would all be okay.
There was always a special connection with us,
And these days it seems to be gone.
Whatever we had died a long time ago,
But it’s just so hard to move on.
Taken from “Not Meant To Be” by Katy Mikelle

Spark In My Heart

Last time I saw you was long time ago. Now 40 years later I can still hear your voice in my head sometimes. I shed a tear once in a while over how a war took you from me and stole your life. I moved on, but never completely. Always your spark will be in my heart. D.K.

Love never disappears for death is a non-event.
I have merely retired to the room next door.
You and I are the same; what we were for each other, we still are.
Speak to me as you always have, do not use a different tone, do not be sad.
Continue to laugh at what made us laugh.
Smile and think of me.
Life means what it has always meant.
The link is not severed.
Why should I be out of your soul if I am out of your sight?
I will wait for you, I am not here, but just on the other side of this path.
You see, all is well.
St. Augustine

I Don’t Know Why

You’ve broken up with me twice before to go be with someone else. Then you turned up later begging forgiveness and I took you back. Not this time. My need to protect my heart is far stronger than what remains there for you. You’re a no good dog. Leave me alone! S.S.

I don’t know why
they call it heartbreak.
It feels like
every other part
of my body
is broken too.
